  • Heavenly Wisdom Not Earthly Wisdom Series

    Contributed by Warner Pidgeon on Nov 25, 2012
    based on 3 ratings
     | 10,740 views

    These verses put our hearts in the dock. God wants to cast out earthly unspiritual wisdom. He wants us full of his heavenly, considerate, merciful wisdom.

    (This illustration comes from Simon Coupland’s Book Spicing up your speaking): Robert Greene wrote a self-help manual for people who want to be amongst life’s winners. He called it ‘The 48 laws of Power’. Here are some of his 48 laws: Never put too much trust in friends; learn how to use enemies. ...read more

    David wants to build God a house, and God in turn reveals that He wants to build David a house, one that is eternal. God has in mind the salvation of the world. He wants to dwell in the hearts of every believer.

    Last week we saw how David moved the Ark of the Lord back to Jerusalem. • He was careless at the first round, but did it right the second time. He heeded God’s Word and followed God’s way. • We honour God’s presence with reverence and a holy fear. We COME CLEAN with ...read more

    There is hope for life after death

    Death is the great leveller - we will all die! Rich and poor, black and white, young and old. Someone once said that nothing is certain in life except taxes and death.

    Contributed by David Smith on Nov 5, 2007
    based on 7 ratings
     | 7,478 views

    It is not the wisdom. It is not the miracles. It is not the things about Christ that we need the most. It is Christ - God with us - His flesh, His blood - food and drink.

    I don’t know what your week has been like, but I’ve had a week that has been full of typical priest-type things: visiting the sick and organising weddings, baptisms and funerals. Indeed, in the next few weeks we’ve got two baptism scheduled, there’s one wedding next Saturday, and tomorrow I have a ...read more

    Philippi was a tough place to start a mission - wrong type of people, wrong area, wrong timing! But it seems that God doesn’t need straightforward circumstances in or...

    We’re reading from the diary of St Paul, as given to us in the book of Acts - a section covering Paul’s second tour of duty in Asia Minor. In Acts Chapter 16, Paul begins what we might call the Apostolic invasion of Europe! In the diary entry that follows this one, Paul and his comrade Silas are ...read more

    based on 4 ratings
     | 11,058 views

    Many love the Lord but do not have the fear of the Lord in their heart. They take God for granted and treat Him with contempt. We need to honour Him with reverence and respect.

    The church was enjoying the presence of the Lord, since Pentecost. • Acts 4:32-35 says all the believers were one in heart and mind. They shared everything they had. Needs were met. The apostles continued to preach with great power. The church was doing well. Acts 4:36-37 Joseph, a Levite ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 17,252 views

    It is not enough to have great potential or show great promise. It is what you do with that potential that makes all the difference. A good beginning does not guarantee a good end. End your life well, to the glory of God.

    Whatever we start, do it well and end it well. Put your heart in it and do a good job. It is more important how we end than how well we start. • This is so true of Saul’s life. He started well, but did not end well. • We are going to read about his death today (1 Sam 31), and ...read more

    What happens right after we die? The answer lies in something Jesus said from the Cross.

    Paradise Luke 23:32-43 Most of us don’t know when death will sweep us away. Only once in my ministry did I know a person who knew the year of his death.
